ENG 111 Writing Center Practicum

The writing center practicum combines instruction in writing center theory and writing pedagogy with practical experience tutoring in The Writing Center. As a student in this class, you will commit to working in the Writing Center as a peer tutor for a minimum of 4 hours a week. There will be weekly reading assignments and a significant portion of class time will be spent discussing the implications/applications of individualized writing instruction (as informed by the readings and practical experiences in the Writing Center). In this class you will become part of a professional community—The Writing Center. In the process of tutoring others you will learn much about yourself and the art and craft of writing. This course is mandatory for all incoming consultants to The Writing Center.
